hondeducation history... a dc2 brought back to life
part I.
accident aftermath
the old owner of my car was infamousrs, who unfortunately plowed into the rear end of a car that took off after the accident. this happened in late august of 2003. in hopes to revive the car and build the car like i always wanted to, i bought the car from the wrecking yard before it was going to be auctioned off.
part II.
fitting the puzzle
it took me until december to finally gather all the parts i wanted to start putting it together... w/ all the help from infamousrs, the car was one piece again... however, it wasn't a piece of art, haha.
part III.
the transformation
well, i finally got the car painted a few weeks ago, and slapped on some 15" bronze c8's. in the pix, i do not have the side skirts or the grille on the car, so yah, you don't need to remind me, heh heh.
part IV.
coming soon...
(hope you enjoyed my car's history and the pix!)

D, you forgot a "part" the motor...
When I wrecked the car I had just a stock b20 in it(I took the Vtec head off 1 week prior to the wreck).
The B20 was doing just fine until Hondeducation called me one night at 3 am and was stranded in the middle of no where....so I got up, and drove to where he was. It turns out, his timming belt broke.
It didn't cause any damage to the motor, so it was the perfect opportunity to put his ITR head/cams, and AEBS IM on. Its a pretty peppy car again now
I still miss the car like you wouldn't believe! It was a huge part of my life for 3 years.
